Bella Hadid Surprises Fans with a Guest Role in Yellowstone, Showcasing Her Equestrian Skills

Bella Hadid made a stunning appearance in the latest episode of Yellowstone, surprising fans with her acting debut and showcasing her equestrian talents. In the 13th episode of Season 5, Hadid plays Sadie, the girlfriend of Travis Wheatley, a horse trainer portrayed by the show’s creator Taylor Sheridan. Hadid’s guest role has left fans talking, especially as she demonstrates her real-life horseback riding abilities.

Hadid’s First Appearance on Yellowstone

Hadid’s character, Sadie, makes her debut when Beth Dutton (played by Kelly Reilly) arrives at Travis’s Texas ranch. Sadie opens the door to greet Beth and asks, “Are you the massage therapist?” To which Beth humorously responds, “Do I look like one of those damn massage girls?” Sadie cheekily replies, “A very expensive type.”

Beth is in Texas to oversee a horse auction hosted by Travis, but when she arrives, she finds him playing strip poker with a group of adults at his home. Beth is quick to shout at him to get to the arena where the wealthy buyers are waiting for him.

Beth’s Impressions of Sadie and Travis

As Beth sits down to watch Travis in the arena, accompanied by Sadie, she tries to figure out what Sadie sees in Travis, whom Beth calls “the most arrogant man” she’s ever met. Sadie then asks Beth, “Have you ever seen him ride a horse?” After watching Travis perform in the arena, Beth responds, “Okay, I get it.”

Beth is impressed by Travis’s salesmanship when he sells a horse for a whopping $3 million (partly due to a setup involving a fake buyer). She’s so impressed that she urges him to come to Montana the following day to attend a Yellowstone auction at the Dutton ranch.

Sadie’s Return to Yellowstone

Sadie makes another appearance during the auction at the Yellowstone Ranch, where she is seen riding a horse in full Western attire. She dons a cowboy hat, a white tank top, oversized blue jeans, and a flannel tied around her waist, fully embracing the ranch style. Hadid’s equestrian skills shine through as she competes in the live auction, adding an authentic touch to her role.

Bella Hadid’s Equestrian Experience

Hadid’s performance in the episode wasn’t just for show — the model has real-life equestrian experience. She has previously shared on social media that she has participated in competitive horseback riding. In an Instagram post from November 3, Hadid shared an accomplishment with her professional rider boyfriend, Adan Banuelos. The caption read: “Bella rode 3 horses and made it to 7 different finals, winning her first championship belt. We continue to be proud of her in (and out) of the arena ♥️.”

Hadid and Banuelos also hosted an event in Manhattan in September, where they rode horses outside the premiere of the film Horse Sense. In another Instagram post, Hadid expressed her gratitude, saying, “My love brought Texas to NYC. I’m so lucky 🍀,” celebrating the unique experience they shared in the city.

Other Surprises in the Episode

Hadid wasn’t the only surprise guest in the episode. Bart Johnson (Blake Lively’s brother-in-law) made a brief appearance, trying to flirt with Beth at a local bar while she was out with her friend Teeter for a girls’ night out. Additionally, the Turnpike Troubadours performed live during the Yellowstone auction, adding to the country atmosphere of the episode.
